My current most annoying thing: usage policy violations that come out of nowhere. I'm having claude develop code for processing scientific article PDFs, and I'm pretty sure the article content triggers the violation. Worse: - No info on the details are provided. - Whatever you do after that (without restarting or rewinding), you still get the error. - Filing an issue doesn't go anywhere. But this must be happening to thousands of users.

Wow! I had not tried deepseek. I just had claude teach me how to use it, and then tested it on the same example, which it got right, and for which it charged next to nothing. This is wonderful and completely hilarious -- that claude would happily give away business. Thank you!! P.S. Now it occurs to me that maybe I'm not comfortable with deepseek having access to directories on my computer.

Yes. I keep mine on my lap. My regimen is that I wake up at 3am and lie on the couch for several hours with coffee and write code (or these days, ask "someone else" to). It is highly productive and enjoyable and breaks all the rules and no I do not have RSI. Long ago I started sandpapering the edges because yeah otherwise it hurts my wrists.

Cool! For GLM-OCR, do you use "Option 2: Self-host with vLLM / SGLang" and in that case, am I correct that there is no internet connection involved and hence connection timeouts would be avoided entirely?

When I was in junior high school and high school, I would hang out at the Purdue University chess club. He was a regular, prone to laughter, a funny guy. We would play double speed chess (which we called "p'dorky") and other silliness. I had no idea he went on to do the cool things that he did.
